A mate at work has just got his B2W mtb today from Chain Reaction. The rear brake needs bleeding.

We are wonderng if it is possible to use a standard mineral oil e.g. LHM (like shimano) to bleed them? Is magura "Blood" special in any way?

Thanks.

'rear brake needs bleeding' ? really ?

to answer your question, magura will tell you to use their royal blood, but in practice standard mineral oil will do.

might be worth letting it stand for a bit and seeing if it settles down - could just be some air that's moved aroudn in transit.
